Distant whispers? WSPR, or the Weak Signal Propagation Reporter network, is a group of amateur radio operators probing radio frequency propagation conditions using very low power transmissions. WSPR produces a propagation map that can help hams choose which band to operate at any given time.

A great article explaining WSPR is available at http://www.g4ilo.com/wspr.html. You’ll get a full explanation of how it works, how to install and use it, and the benefits you’ll enjoy from WSPR.

Net Reminder:

NMARESC (The North Club) has a net on their new repeater every Monday at 1930 on 145.170 MHz with a negative .600 MHz offset (144.57 MHz) and a tone of 103.5.You do not have to be a member of the club to join in! New folks are always welcome!

Take The Test!

VE exams for all license levels are offered the second Saturday of each month (usually right after our meeting) at 1000 (10 A.M.) at the PUD#3, Auditorium A, 2621 Johns Prairie Rd., Shelton. For testing you will need the original and a copy of your present license (if you have your ticket already), some form of ID with YOUR picture on it and $15.
